Ammonium biurate crystals are a type of crystal that can sometimes be observed in urine sediment during a urinalysis.

Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Ammonium biurate crystals are often described as brown or yellow-brown, and they can appear as spherical or amorphous structures. They are sometimes referred to as "thorn apple" crystals due to their appearance. The presence of ammonium biurate crystals in the urine can be indicative of certain medical conditions, most notably liver disease. They are often associated with conditions like portosystemic shunts (abnormal blood vessels that bypass the liver), which can lead to impaired liver function and increased levels of ammonia in the blood.
